Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Accounting Policies | Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments which are of a normal and recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented have been reflected. Dollar amounts are reported in millions, except per share dollar amounts, unless otherwise noted. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The terms "Corporation," "Kimberly-Clark," "K-C," "we," "our" and "us" refer to Kimberly-Clark Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. Highly Inflationary Accounting GAAP requires the use of highly inflationary accounting for countries whose cumulative three-year inflation exceeds 100 percent. Under highly inflationary accounting, the countries’ functional currency becomes the U.S. dollar, and its income statement and balance sheet are measured in U.S. dollars using both current and historical rates of exchange. In the second quarter of 2018, published inflation indices indicated that the three-year cumulative inflation in Argentina exceeded 100 percent, and as of July 1, 2018, we adopted highly inflationary accounting for our subsidiaries in Argentina (“K-C Argentina”). The effect of changes in exchange rates on peso-denominated monetary assets and liabilities has been reflected in earnings in Other (income) and expense, net. As of June 30, 2024 , K-C Argentina had an immaterial net peso monetary position. Net sales of K-C Argentina were approximately 1 percent of our consolidated net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. In the first quarter of 2022, published inflation indices indicated that the three-year cumulative inflation in Türkiye exceeded 100 percent, and as of April 1, 2022, we adopted highly inflationary accounting for our subsidiary in Türkiye (“K-C Türkiye”). The effect of changes in exchange rates on lira-denominated monetary assets and liabilities has been reflected in earnings in Other (income) and expense , net. As of June 30, 2024, K-C Türkiye h ad an immaterial net lira monetary position. Net sales of K-C Türkiye were le ss than 1 perce nt of our consolidated net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 . Recently Adopted Accounting Standard In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2022-04, Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50) . The new guidance requires that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of the financial statements to understand the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. We adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2023, except for the amendment on roll forward information which was adopted January 1, 2024. As the guidance requires only additional disclosure, there were no effects of this standard on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) . The new guidance improves reportable segment disclosures primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and by requiring current annual disclosures to be provided in interim periods. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The new guidance is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented unless impracticable to do so. As the guidance requires only additional disclosure, there will be no effects of this standard on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) . The new guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, and the amendments should be applied on a prospective basis with retrospective application permitted. As the guidance requires only additional disclosure, there will be no effects of this standard on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In March 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted final rules under SEC Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors . The rules require disclosure of, among other things: climate-related risks that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on its business, results of operations, or financial condition, and material direct greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions from operations owned or controlled (Scope 1) and/or indirect GHG emissions from purchased energy consumed in operations (Scope 2). Additionally, the rules require disclosure of certain climate-related metrics subject to certain materiality thresholds, including the effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions. Disclosure requirements will begin phasing in prospectively for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2025. Subsequent to issuance, the rules became the subject of litigation, and the SEC has issued a stay to allow the legal process to proceed. We are currently evaluating the impact of the rules on our disclosures and will monitor the litigation progress for possible impacts on the disclosure requirements under the rules. |

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] | |
2024 Transformation Initiative | 2024 Transformation Initiative On March 27, 2024, we announced the 2024 Transformation Initiative intended to improve our focus on growth and reduce our structural cost base by reorganizing into three new business segments, making the corporate and regional overhead cost structures more efficient and optimizing our global supply chain. The transformation is expected to impact our organization in all major geographies, and workforce reductions are expected to be in the range of 4 percent to 5 percent. Certain actions under the transformation initiative are being finalized for implementation, and accounting for such actions will commence when the actions are authorized for execution. We expect to complete the transition to the new organizational structure by the end of 2024, and the transformation initiative is expected to be completed by the end of 2026, with total costs anticipated to be approximately $1.5 billion pre-tax. Cash costs are expected to be approximately half of that amount, primarily related to workforce reductions. Expected non-cash charges are primarily related to incremental depreciation and asset write-offs, including losses associated with the expected exit of certain markets. The following charges were incurred in connection with the 2024 Transformation Initiative: Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 Cost of products sold: Charges for workforce reductions $ 34 $ 34 Asset write-offs 5 5 Incremental depreciation 3 3 Other exit costs 3 3 Total 45 45 Marketing, research and general expenses: Charges for workforce reductions 46 69 Other exit costs 24 46 Total 70 115 Other (income) and expense, net (a) 75 75 Total charges 190 235 Provision for income taxes (73) (84) Net charges attributable to Kimberly-Clark Corporation $ 117 $ 151 (a) Other (Income) and expense, net includes losses recognized for the exit of certain markets as part of the transformation initiatives.

Business Combinations [Abstract] | |
Mergers, Acquisitions and Dispositions Disclosures | Acquisition and Divestiture Acquisition On February 24, 2022, we completed our acquisition of a majority and controlling share of Thinx Inc. (“Thinx”), an industry leader in the reusable period and incontinence underwear category, for total consideration of $181. We previously accounted for our ownership interest in Thinx as an equity method investment, but upon increasing our ownership to 58 percent, we began consolidating the operations of Thinx into our consolidated financial statements at the end of the first quarter of 2022. In the first quarter of 2023, we delivered a redemption notice to the third-party minority owner with respect to a portion of the remaining common securities of Thinx. The redemption closed in the second quarter of 2023, and we acquired additional ownership of Thinx for $48, increasing our controlling ownership to 70 percent. As part of the completion of a negotiated final redemption, we acquired the remaining 30 percent ownership of Thinx for $47 in the fourth quarter of 2023. As the purchase of additional ownership in an already controlled subsidiary represents an equity transaction, no gain or loss was recognized in consolidated net income or comprehensive income. Divestiture On June 1, 2023, we completed the sale transaction, announced on October 24, 2022, of our Neve tissue brand and related consumer and K-C Professional tissue assets in Brazil for $212. Upon closure of the transaction, a gain of $74 pre-tax was recognized in Other (income) and expense, net. We incurred divestiture-related costs of $30 pre-tax, which were recorded in Cost of products sold and Marketing, research and general expenses, resulting in a net benefit of $44 pre-tax ($26 after tax). See Note 3, Acquisition and Divestiture, to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for further information related to the Thinx acquisition and Brazil divestiture. |

Intangible Assets Disclosure | Impairment of Intangible Assets In the second quarter of 2023, we conducted forecasting and strategic reviews and integration assessments of our Softex Indonesia business, acquired in the fourth quarter of 2020, and with performance below expectations since acquisition, we revised internal financial projections of the business to reflect updated expectations of future financial performance. As a result of separate management reviews, we also have revised internal financial projections associated with our acquisition of a controlling interest in Thinx as a result of performance below expectations. These revisions were considered triggering events requiring interim impairment assessments to be performed relative to the intangible assets that had been recorded as part of these acquisitions. These intangible assets were recorded as part of the Personal Care business segment and included indefinite-lived and finite-lived brands and finite-lived distributor and customer relationships. As a result of the interim impairment assessments, we recognized impairment charges, principally arising from the impairment charge of $593 related to the Softex business, totaling $658 pre-tax ($483 after tax) to write-down these intangible assets to their respective fair values aggregating to $188 as of June 30, 2023. See Note 4, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for further information. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Information | Fair Value Information The following fair value information is based on a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels in the hierarchy used to measure fair value are: Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets accessible at the reporting date for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets. Quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not considered active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 – Prices or valuations that require inputs that are significant to the valuation and are unobservable. A financial instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and for the full year 2023, there were no significant transfers to or from level 3 fair value determinations. Derivative assets and liabilities are measured on a recurring basis at fair value. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, derivative assets were $110 and $70, respectively, and derivative liabilities were $159 and $259, respectively. The fair values of derivatives used to manage interest rate risk and commodity price risk are based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") and interest rate swap curves and on commodity price quotations, respectively. The fair values of hedging instruments used to manage foreign currency risk are based on published quotations of spot currency rates and forward points, which are converted into implied forward currency rates. Measurement of our derivative assets and liabilities is considered a level 2 measurement. Additional information on our classification and use of derivative instruments is contained in Note 8. Redeemable preferred securities of subsidiaries are measured on a recurring basis at their estimated redemption values, which approximate fair value. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the securities were valued at $26. The securities are not traded in active markets, and their measurement is considered a level 3 measurement. Company-owned life insurance ("COLI") assets are measured on a recurring basis at fair value. COLI assets were $70 and $67 at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , respectively. The COLI policies are a source of funding primarily for our nonqualified employee benefits and are included in Other Assets. The COLI policies are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share practical expedient, and therefore, are not classified in the fair value hierarchy. The following table includes the fair value of our financial instruments for which disclosure of fair value is required: Fair Value Hierarchy Level Carrying Amount Estimated Fair Value Carrying Amount Estimated Fair Value June 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 Assets Cash and cash equivalents (a) 1 $ 1,163 $ 1,163 $ 1,093 $ 1,093 Time deposits (b) 1 168 168 169 169 Non-US government bonds (c) 2 30 37 — — Liabilities Short-term debt (d) 2 9 9 2 2 Long-term debt (e) 2 7,955 7,323 7,982 7,569 (a) Cash equivalents are composed of certificates of deposit, time deposits and other interest-bearing investments with original maturity dates of 90 days or less.

Equity [Abstract] | |
Stockholders' Equity | Stockholders' Equity Net unrealized currency gains or losses resulting from the translation of assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries, except those in highly inflationary economies, are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI"). For these operations, changes in exchange rates generally do not affect cash flows; therefore, unrealized translation adjustments are recorded in AOCI rather than net income. Upon sale or substantially complete liquidation of any of these subsidiaries, the applicable unrealized translation would be removed from AOCI and reported as part of the gain or loss on the sale or liquidation. Also included in unrealized translation amounts are the effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes on intercompany balances of a long-term investment nature and transactions designated as hedges of net foreign investments. The change in net unrealized currency translation for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily due to the weakening of certain foreign currencies versus the U.S. dollar. The changes in the components of AOCI attributable to Kimberly-Clark, net of tax, are as follows: Unrealized Translation Defined Benefit Pension Plans Other Postretirement Benefit Plans Cash Flow Hedges and Other Balance as of December 31, 2022 $ (2,769) $ (789) $ 52 $ (163) Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications 46 (18) (1) (103) (Income) loss reclassified from AOCI — 35 (a) — (a) 71 Net current period other comprehensive income (loss) 46 17 (1) (32) Balance as of June 30, 2023 $ (2,723) $ (772) $ 51 $ (195) Balance as of December 31, 2023 $ (2,678) $ (791) $ 39 $ (152) Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications (232) 7 (1) 92 (Income) loss reclassified from AOCI 45 (b) 15 (a) (1) (a) 25 Net current period other comprehensive income (loss) (187) 22 (2) 117 Balance as of June 30, 2024 $ (2,865) $ (769) $ 37 $ (35) (a) Included in computation of net periodic benefit costs.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Objectives And Strategies For Using Derivatives | Objectives and Strategies for Using Derivatives As a multinational enterprise, we are exposed to financial risks, such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest r ates, and commodity prices. We employ a number of practices to manage these risks, including operating and financing activities and, where appropriate, the use of derivative instruments. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, derivative assets were $110 and $70, respectively, and derivative liabilities were $159 and $259, respectively, primarily comprised of foreign currency exchange and commodity price contracts. Derivative assets are recorded in Other current assets or Other Assets, as appropriate, and derivative liabilities are recorded in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities or Other Liabilities, as appropriate. Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk Translation adjustments result from translating foreign entities' financial statements into U.S. dollars from their functional currencies. The risk to any particular entity's net assets is reduced to the extent that the entity is financed with local currency borrowings. A portion of our balance sheet translation exposure for certain affiliates, which results from changes in translation rates between the affiliates’ functional currencies and the U.S. dollar, is hedged with cross-currency swap contracts and certain foreign denominated debt which are designated as net investment hedges. The foreign currency exposure on certain non-functional currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities, primarily intercompany loans and accounts payable, is hedged with primarily undesignated derivative instruments. Derivative instruments are entered into to hedge a portion of forecasted cash flows denominated in foreign currencies for non-U.S. operations' purchases of raw materials, which are priced in U.S. dollars, and imports of intercompany finished goods and work-in-process priced predominantly in U.S. dollars and euros. The derivative instruments used to manage these exposures are designated as cash flow hedges. Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk is managed using a portfolio of variable and fixed-rate debt composed of short and long-term instruments. Interest rate swap contracts may be used to facilitate the maintenance of the desired ratio of variable and fixed-rate debt and are designated as fair value hedges. From time to time, we also hedge the anticipated issuance of fixed-rate debt, and these contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. Commodity Price Risk We use derivative instruments, such as commodity forward and price swap contracts, to hedge a portion of our exposure to market risk arising from changes in prices of certain commodities. These derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges of specific quantities of the underlying commodity expected to be purchased in future months. In addition, we utilize negotiated contracts of varying durations along with strategic pricing mechanisms to manage volatility for a portion of our commodity costs. Fair Value Hedges Derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are predominantly used to manage interest rate risk. The fair values of these interest rate derivative instruments are recorded as an asset or liability, as appropriate, with the offset recorded in Interest expense. The offset to the change in fair values of the related debt is also recorded in Interest expense. Any realized gain or loss on the derivatives that hedge interest rate risk is amortized to Interest expense over the life of the related debt. As of June 30, 2024, the aggregate notional values and carrying values of debt subject to outstanding interest rate contracts designated as fair value hedges were $525 and $480, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, gains or losses recognized in Interest expense for interest rate swaps were not significant. Cash Flow Hedges For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is initially recorded in AOCI, net of related income taxes, and recognized in earnings in the same income statement line and period that the hedged exposure affects earnings. As of June 30, 2024, outstanding commodity forward and price swap contracts were in place to hedge a portion of our estimated requirements of the related underlying commodities in the remainder of 2024 and future periods. As of June 30, 2024, the aggregate notional value of outstanding foreign exchange derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges was $3.0 billion. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, no significant gains or losses were reclassified into Interest expense, Cost of products sold or Other (income) and expense, net as a result of the discontinuance of cash flow hedges due to the original forecasted transaction no longer being probable of occurring. At June 30, 2024, amounts to be reclassified from AOCI into Interest expense, Cost of products sold or Other (income) and expense, net during the next twelve months are not expected to be material. The maximum maturity of cash flow hedges in place at June 30, 2024 is June 2027. Net Investment Hedges For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as net investment hedges, the aggregate notional value was $1.7 billion at June 30, 2024. We exclude the interest accruals on cross-currency swap contracts and the forward points on foreign exchange forward contracts from the assessment and measurement of hedge effectiveness. We recognize the interest accruals on cross-currency swap contracts in earnings within Interest expense. We amortize the forward points on foreign exchange contracts into earnings within Interest expense over the life of the hedging relationship. Changes in fair value of net investment hedges are recorded in AOCI and offset the change in the value of the net investment being hedged. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, unrealized gains, net of tax, of $35 related to net investment hedge fair value changes were recorded in AOCI and no significant amounts were reclassified from AOCI to Interest expense. No significant amounts were excluded from the assessment of net investment, fair value or cash flow hedge effectiveness as of June 30, 2024. Undesignated Hedging Instruments Gains or losses on undesignated foreign exchange hedging instruments are immediately recognized in Other (income) and expense, net. Losses of $9 and $14 were recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Losses of $32 and $6 were recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The effect on earnings from the use of these non-designated derivatives is substantially neutralized by the transactional gains and losses recorded on the underlying assets and liabilities. At June 30, 2024, the notional value of these undesignated derivative instruments was approximately $3.1 billion. |
